Abstract:
   A clear application of the SRv6 Network Programming model consists in
   steering, in a stateless manner, packets through a Service Function
   Chain (SFC).  Each Service Function (SF) is identified by a segment.
   Each SF can enrich its operation thanks to metadata present in the
   SRH.

   This document describes a practical use-case where the SF is a
   firewall and the metadata helps to drastically decrease the number of
   rules that need to be maintained by the operation team.
